Croctober is Here!

Like New Balance, Crocs has also managed to have a phenomenal rebranding. Originally founded in 2002, Crocs has always been around in the background. But it wasn’t until recent years when the infamous clogs really began to pick up traction. Since then, we’ve been blessed with colorways and limited-edition collaborations that we probably wouldn’t have seen if it wasn’t for the company’s rise in popularity. The original Croctober started in 2017 and is typically celebrated on October 23rd (which is really National Crocodile Day, but Croc fans flipped the holiday and made it their own). But this year is a little special as Crocs is celebrating 20 years in the game.
Croctober festivities kicked off during the first week of October with Crocs launching their "Free Pair for All" shoe giveaway and festivities are ongoing. Special collaborations include Salehe Bembury, BT21 and Pokémon. To close out the month-long celebration, Crocs is partnering with Roblox and Zepeto where fans will be able to participate in an in-game meet and greet in Crocs World with a K-pop star to be revealed soon.
“Croctober is one of our most favorite times of the year – a time to recognize our fans, many of whom have supported us unconditionally since the beginning and who live at the heart of our brand. Over the last two decades, as we’ve grown up, they have too, and together we’ve created a global comfort revolution. ”
